    3. I am searching for certain people who lived in Cheneys Grove Twp. in the 1860's. I am looking for: 1. John CLARK, a tailor, born ca 1810-17 in Ohio County, VA. In the 1860 census he was living in the household of his son-in-law John Tutt. In 1880 he was in Bloomington and disappears from the record after that. He was a corporal in Co. F, 116th Illinois Infantry in the Civil War. 2. John TUTT, a carpenter, born in KY. He married Alice CLARK, daughter of John CLARK. John TUTT was a 1st lieutenant, Co. F, 116th Illinois Infantry and died of erysipelas at Younge Pointe, LA 26 January 1863. 3. William GASTON, a farmer, born in Ohio Co., VA. He enlisted as a corporal in Co. F, 116th Illinois Infantry and died of typhoid fever at Cheneys Grove on 9 October 1862. Does anyone have any information on these people? Also, are there any cemeteries in the area and, do any people with these surnames appear in the cemetery records? (CLARK moved away and TUTT was probably buried in Louisiana but GASTON may have been buried in Cheneys Grove and one or more of TUTT's children may have been buried there as well). Thank You Paul Frost [email protected]
